Chats That Matter

Engage, develop and support your staff

Take a strengths-based coaching approach to PDR, engage with your staff and help them be their best selves and get things on the up!

We run Chats That Matter® programmes in organisations because we know that managers want to retain their best people, develop their team’s talents and get great results from happy, engaged, and motivated staff.

One of the best ways to achieve these outcomes, is to engage employees in meaningful conversations about performance, wellbeing, and aspirations. So many organisations report that their Performance Development Review Process is not fit for purpose, is a tick box exercise and it is not uncommon for employees to dread the annual PDR or appraisal.

Find Out How We Can Help

our approach

We provide your leaders with a person-centred and strengths-based conversation template and guide that can be used all-year-round in management and review conversations, not just annually at appraisal.

We show your managers how to lead with empathy and how to motivate people by understanding what matters to them. We offer a blended learning approach and include a Coaching Toolkit full of resources to enable the conversation to focus on strengths, potential and practical actions.

Chats That Matter® are transformative conversations that can help retain your best people, develop those that need a boost and emotionally engage employees, so they feel; valued and supported, fulfil their potential, and do their best work.
